EELS - Longing lyrics

rate me

The longing is a pain<br />

A heavy pressure on my chest<br />

It rarely leaves<br />

My day becomes a quest<br />

<br />

To try not to think about her<br />

And all that she brings<br />

Forget about her magic<br />

All the beautiful things<br />

<br />

Surely there are other things to life<br />

But I can't think of one single thing<br />

That matters more than just to see her<br />

Just to see her<br />

<br />

Her smile, her touch<br />

Her smell, her laugh<br />

<br />

The longing is a friend<br />

A way to stay close<br />

And feel like she's here<br />

And feel like she knows<br />

<br />

That when I say I would die for her<br />

It's not just words, I really would<br />

And to make the world a safer place for her<br />

Well, I believe I really could<br />

<br />

Surely there are other things to life<br />

But I can't think of one single thing<br />

That matters more than just to see her<br />

To see her<br />

<br />

Her tears, her sorrow<br />

Her faults, her doubts<br />

I love them all<br /><br />
